The yield on the 10-year US Treasury note eased to 4.47% after testing 4.5% earlier in the session after Fed Chairman Warsh said inflation risks in the US were softening.
This was aligned with the softer price data from the ISM PMI, as wholesale energy prices returned to levels comparable from before the war in the Middle East.
Still, yields held 10bps above the seven-week low from Monday.
The ADP Report showed 98,000 private-sector jobs were added to the economy, adding leeway for the Fed to tighten monetary policy to combat high inflation.
Although oil prices retreated, refined fuel costs remained sharply higher and backed expectations of a Fed hike this year.
Rate traders still showed a loose consensus of one hike by December, but a portion of the market has priced multiple hikes.
In the meantime, Warsh reiterated his view that the Fed's balance sheet is too high and hampers the transmission of monetary policy through rate-setting, potentially preluding selling of notes and bonds.
